Founded in 2009 by Nik Mercer and DJ Jacques Renault, Lets Play House is one of New York's most reliable house and disco parties. Their fall season will begin in earnest with two "J&J" dates featuring Renault and former DFA label manager Justin Miller. The first will take place on September 14th at the opening of Cocktail Bodega Underground, a new bar replacing what was formerly known as 205 in Manhattan, and the second will be a "versus" night between Let's Play House and Have A Killer Time.

The following weekend, Let's Play House will hit Glasslands Gallery for the NYC debut of Italian house producer Nicholas, also featuring Renault and Belgian duo Down+Out. On October 6th, LPH will land at Le Poisson Rouge with anonymous edit masters Tiger & Woods and UK duo Bicep, who will be kicking off their North American tour. Dog & Pony Show resident Paul Raffaele will be on hand as well. Tickets for the Nicholas show and the Tiger & Woods night are available on RA.

No one was seriously injured in the incident, which took place in the early hours of Sunday morning in Edmonton.
